Oakthwaite House

As a small guesthouse, our hope is to create a "home away from home" with true Lakeland bed and breakfast values to provide all our guests with high quality service and a comfortable, relaxing, enjoyable stay during their visit to the beautiful Lake District.

Oakthwaite House is a Victorian town house built c.1876 in a quiet residential area of Keswick, only a five-minute walk from the town centre. Superbly situated to explore the stunning natural surrounds of the Lake District, or enjoy a romantic getaway and celebrate a special occasion, Oakthwaite House offers you a contemporary and extra special place to enjoy your visit to Keswick.

We also offer wireless broadband internet access in all rooms.

The location of our guesthouse in Keswick and in the Lake District National Park makes it an ideal base from which to explore and enjoy the many wonders of the Northern Lakes.

Parking is 'on street' and there are no restrictions. Unfortunately we do not take pets.

We also have a "Stay & Save" special offer available for stays of 3 nights or more in the New Year, just book direct with us and quote "Stay and Save Winter". View our Tariff Page for more information.

We offer a range of delicious hearty breakfast options to give you the perfect start to any morning. On request, we also offer packed lunches, please contact us to discuss your bespoke catering requirements.

We look forward to welcoming you soon!

The very best of wishes.
